Dana White wants boxer Tyson Fury

Tyson has a good record, but he is not a very technical fighter. During his last fight, he got knocked down by a guy the size of a UFC Middleweight, wearing large boxing gloves! Imagine what a UFC Heavyweight with those little gloves could do to him! He loves to keep his hands down, and his jab is average, his head movement is below average, and his footwork is average. I don't think he's that good, just that this generation of boxing sucks compared to 20 years ago.

Really sucks for Fury that this is MMA and not boxing and he wants a shot at the best HW in MMA. So all the boxing accolades in the world mean nada when on your back and a high level grappler is on top of you.

Mojojo, my brother, I know this come on now. Listen, this is the problem I have when I hear some of the dribble that I've heard about this issue here. Fury says he would smash Cain in an MMA fight, I say that it's the dumbest idea ever on Tysons part and he would get brutalised within 2 minutes(just depends how long Cain wants to punish him for), right, that would've been a done deal for me. But then when I hear things like "Fury is that much of a shitt boxer that Cain would knock him out on the feet too" or Cain has that much punching power he would knock Fury out on the feet when he catches him" Aaaaaaaahhhhh!!! No No No he wouldn't lol. See what I'm getting at? Cain would never knock out a top ranked undefeated boxer like Fury, not in a million years, he has the power of course same as JDS,but Fury as a professional and very highly skilled boxer would see looping strikes off any MMA fighter all day and would counter his head off all day if it was a boxing fight only.

The thought of Fury competing in an MMA fight is beyond ludicrous. Hell I would go far as to say that I would beat Fury in an MMA fight if he doesn't take my head off before I get a unskilled grappler like Tyson to the mat,but it's just as ludicrous to say that anyone of them would spark him out at his game of Pro Boxing.

Fury is a prick sometimes but I was trying to explain that he's not that bad of a boxer as many think cuz of his mouth, his gif of him accidentally punching himself and the quality of opposition he might've had. Any UFC fighter that would try and box with him, whether its in MMA or Boxing would have exactly the same of a chance like Fury has with all of them in a MMA fight. A punchers chance, that's it!. They have to take him down to fuk him up.

Fair enough and good post. I understand what you guys were saying and probably shouldn't have been so quick to be an asss.

I don't think any of us think he'd stand a chance of winning in MMA, but I was replying to someone who tried to was discrediting Tysons boxing ability, when he's one of the top HW boxers in the world just now.

I don't think he'd be able to use his boxing as effectively as some might think in an mma fight. You have too many variables to worry about. I think the stronger kickboxers in the division would have a good chance of whoopin him without having to take him down. Your gonna have trouble with your footwork when you got monsters like overeem or Barry for example blasting you with leg kicks. And footwork is very important to boxers obviously as we all know. He's not used to being dirty boxed mma style either with elbows and knees being thrown in there. Without any mma training at all I don't think the guy stands a chance against many whether its standing or not.

Its true. Guys are throwing these slow haymakers and landing repeatedly. Maybe block or something.

I'm a big boxing fan,
I've fellowed Marquez's career since he drawed with Freddie Norwood back in 99,
its just starting to lose its grip with fans but Boxing will never become irrelevant.
Just to much corruption involved that brought me to MMA

People forget when Royce challenged Mike Tyson to a MMA match, needless to say Tyson didn't respond back. After all money talks and no way was it worth the risk. Totally different sports. Most MMA practitioners would be destroyed by top ranked boxers in their weight class. The same more times than not could be said of the boxer attempting MMA. Both have their merits but just different combat sports
